Long Time No Blog

The two of you who read this thing have told me that I have been negligent in writing. I know that. I'm sorry. Now for the list of excuses.

First, things have been really busy. Things are good, just busy. We have moved into the offices and are in the process of getting things set up there. Family has been good. The kids are out of school and I am trying to spend time with them.

Second, honestly, there have been other things that have taken my time. I know it doesn't take long to write this but nevertheless, that's the truth.

Third, The couple of times I did start to write something, I had so much I wanted to say that I couldn't decide what to do and then just didn't do anything.

Fourth, things have been really busy. Did I already mention that?

So What? I will do better. I will not disappoint either of you again by being so negligent in writing. And I think I need to make sure that I manage my time wisely. I will be talking about time management in a few weeks.

Why "So What"

So What is the ultimate question.If, after hearing someone teach or talk to you about anything, especially the Bible, you cannot answer that question, you have wasted your time. We have to be able to apply what we have heard to our life. It's not a disrespectful thing. It's not a selfish thing. It's simply a way to make sure that you are getting the most out of the time you put in to listening and learning.
